TO MAKE NIGHT DRIVING SAFE.

A white strip painted down the centre of the paved part of
the highwap, similar t> the strips usually found at curves and hills,
is suggéstedj by a newspaper in Eastern Canada as a desirable
safety device for night driving. Those who have used a heavily
traveled highway on a rainy night will appreciate what such mark- ,
ings would mean, because it is often difficult in the face of headlight

' glare to determine how far to the right a car may be safely steered.
The opinion of a second. editor, commenting on the proposed white
strip down the centre, is that such a device would deprive the white
line of its special warning siguificance where it already occurs at
cirves and hills. . This paper believes that, if a white line were
painted all along each side of the pavement, leaving the centre lines
at hills and curves as they are, the driver would. be afforded what he
m st needs—a clear definition of his own side of the pavement,

THE

‘SUN, SLONY PLAIN,

ALBERTA

Nature's

aws

In these days much is said and written on the subject of planning,—
planning, social planning, financial planning.
Economists, both those who have made a life study of economic principles,
trends and problems, and those who assume to speak on economics but have

only a superficial knowledge of the subject, are talking and writing on the}

subject of plarining. Governments the world over are engaged with the sub-
ject, and world conferences are wrestling with it. As a result, people are
confused with the multiplicity of ideas advanced, as in the majority of
cases, one set of ideas is contradicted by another set.

However, out of the confusion, there has come the suggestion that na-
tions evérywhere should reverse the process they have been following of
increasing and expanding production and proceed to curtail production. Sa,
we are told, farmers should reduce the acreage they are planting: to wheat
and cotton and coffee; miners should mine less copper, iron, silver, zinc and
tin; smaller quantities of oil should be pumped from the bowels of the earth;
fewer fish should be caught; less timber cut; amenet quantities of manufac-

tured articles turned out. . }

The suggestion is an absurd one. The population of the world is stead-
ily, éven rapidly, increasing, and people want more of everything, not less.
Why then produce less to meet their needs? The problem that calls for solu-
tion is not that there is too much wheat in.the world, or that too much of it
is being produced annually, but that certain countries for purely national
redsons are denying to their people the right to import wheat and in so
doing are denying to them the privilege of cheap bread. And what applies to
wheat, applies in varying degrees to all other products and commodities.

Nature with her immutable and inexorable laws has a way of control-
ling production. In this year of 1933 when the story of huge wheat surpluses
is heard on every hand, Nature stepped in and reduced the wheat crop of the

United States by two hundred million bushels, and struck tens of millions}

of bushéls off the Canadian.crop; and reduced the yield in other countries.
Drouth, and hail, and grasshoppers,-and other insect pests all took their toll,

and as a result the world will not produce more wheat than its inhabitants |

require. - 4

Suppose the acreage sown to wheat, for example, was arbitrarily cuz
tailed by order of governments. Farmers would be obliged to summerfallow
the land not seeded to prevent it becoming infested with weeds. It will be
acknowledged that the more carefully and intensively the land is worked
and cultivated, the greater the production per acre. Consequently, the almost
certain result would be that larger average yields would be obtained, and the
reduced acreage in crop would be offset to a considerable extent by the
heavier yields. Therefore, even assuming that less wheat should be produced,
reduction in: acreage sown might not solve the problem. It: may be admitted
that there would be an economic saving to the farmer in increasing his yield
per acre and sowing fewer acres. Possibly farmers should have followed this
practice in the past, and should do so in the future, but not with the object
of raising less wheat, but better wheat and more of it per acre at less ‘cost
to himself. :

And if man decided in his wisdom, or lack of it, to greatly reduce the
production of wheat in any one year, Nature might likewise in that year en-
force certain of her laws to bring about a reduction, with the result that
man might easily find himself in dire need. Or Nature might offset the puny
efforts of man and order climatic and other conditions which wou more
than offset all man’s efforts to lessen production.

Man stands impotent when drofth comes and day follows day without |

rain; he is powerless when hail lashes his grain crops to the ground; -he can
wage but a futile battle when grasshoppers and other pests swarm over the
land; he can do nothing if a blighting frost destroys. But Nature has her own
ways and methods of control. When grasshoppers increase, a parasite deve!-
ops which ultimately destroys the hoppers; when rabbits become unduly
numerous, disease takes them off. Man may wage war against this or that,
he may plan and seek to control, but in the final analysis Nature directs and
controls.

There are men who in this day and generation propose to plan and
control practically everything, who declare that old laws of supply and
demand, of the survival of the fittest, are absolete, and should be ignored
or overcome. These things, they say, are merely the laws of the jungle,
which should have no place in our modern civilization. But the laws of the

jungle are Nature's laws. In the jungle Nature rules supreme, and it is a)

jungle because no attempt is made to'interfere with Nature.

Man may, and can, and does control some of the powers of Nature.
Working with Nature he can bring about many improvements, and may
even control Nature in some of its aspects and woykings. But with many
ef Nature’s laws and workings, man can exercise no control whatever. He
cannot lengthen or shorten the seasons, he cannot determine the weather, he
cannot order the earth to bring forth bountiful cops this year and less than
mormal crops next year. And he better not try to do it.

The real trouble with the world today is that man has tried to control
Nature’s law of supply and demand by setting up an intricate network of
man-made restrictions, obstructions, barriers, prohibitions, which interfere

.with the natural working of that law. As a result man hag put himself into

a huge spider’s web of his own making in which he is struggling in futile
fashion. He can only free himself, not by a further defiance of and interfer-
ence with Nature, but by destroying the web he has woven to his own
undoing.

Change Hardly Noticeable

American Inch: Unit Now Two- Mil-
; lionths Less In Length

The American inch unit of meas-
urement has lost two-millionths of its
former length in order that precise
measuring in the United States and
England may be done on the same
basis. The new definition of the inch
igs now 25.4 millimetres—a difference
of about one-eighth inch in a mile as
compared with the former American
standard. This minute alteration was
made necessary by modern precision
manufacturing and the confusion
arising from varying standards in the
two countries. Gauge blocks now are
made correct to within one-millionth
of an inch. Both the United States
bureau of standards and the national
physical laboratory of England will
certify industrial gauges on the new
basis.

Professor Raps Modern

Method Of Education

‘| Says’ Students’ Mind Clogged Witt

Dead Matter

Modern methods of education clogs
the mind and as the result miodérn
young. people are class conscious,
really ignorant, selfish and arrogant,
their minds filled with dead matter.

This slashing attack on modern
methods of education was made by
Dr. William Oliver, professor of the
School of Organization and Industry
at Edinburgh University, Scotland,
in an address at the annual confer-
ence of the textile industry held in
Harrowgate, England.

“Modern education tends,” Dr. Oliv-
er said, “to hinder mental develop-
ment by clogging the mind with dead
matter. Education has become too pe-
dantic, and in consequence distrust
had arisen between men interested in
education and men interested in in-
dustry.

“The idea that education should
relieve its recipients of. manual labor
was prevalent, and it has been
strengthened by the evolution of staff
appointments mainly dealing with
clerical duties. ‘Manufacturers were
largely to blame for appointing their
managers from the office, rather than
from the machine.

“It is distinctly unfortunate that
much of the present day educational
procedure is developing a class of
young people who do not wish to
work in factories, or indeed to work
at all. Many ‘liberally educated’
young people are really ignorant, sel-
fish and arrogant.

“ “Wherever a man gets above the
dead level of bare subsistence he be-
comes obsessed with the idea that his
family should have an easier time

| than he has had. He fails to see that

his hard work has been the essential
factor in any _ success he _ has
achieved.”

“As long as so many people in the
world are starving, there is no sense
in reducing acreage,” Neil 8. Beaton,
president of the Scottish Co-Opera-
tive Wholesale Society considers.
“The right thing is to raise the stand-
‘ard of living of the people so that
they can consume nature’s bounty in-
stead of restricting it. The world has
succeeded in production, it must ap-
ply itself to distribution. That is the

main object of. the consumers’ co-op-|,

erative movement,” he declared.

Members of. the delegation . from
the Scottish Society, discussing the
question at Saskatoon, did not consid-
er that the maximum possible con-
sumption of bread had beén reached.
In Scotland when potatoes were
cheap the consumption of bread’ fell
to rise again when there was any
potato shortage, one of the delegates
pointed out.

The representatives of the society
visiting the west were: Mr. Beaton,
Alexander Buchanan, a director, and
William Smith, grain buyer and man-
ager of flour mills. They were in-
specting the property of the society
in Saskatchewan which includes nine

grain elevators. They later attended |,

the wheat conference at Regina and
the conferénce of the Co-Operative
Union also held there during the time
of the World’s Grain Show. .

The Co-Operative movement in
Scotland had mord than held its own
during the depression said Mr. Beaton
answering a question.
the Wholesale Society had remained
steady at about 16,000,000 pounds for
the past four years, but at the lower-
ed prices this involved a considerable
increase in bulk of goods.

-The wholesale organization was
employing more people than before
the depression, at the end of 1932
there were 10,567 employees, an in-
crease of 200 over the previous year.
The 250 retail societies had 774,776
members and as these were usually
heads of families they represented
the majority of the four and a half
million people of Scotland. They had
20,000,000 pounds in share and loan
capital in the society.

It was intended to open shortly a
linoleum factory at Falkland in Fife-
shire costing 100,000 pounds. Other
new ventures were a creamery at Kil-
marnock and extensions to grocery
warehouses at Glasgow and Dundee
and to the fish curing station at

Aberdeen. ;

As He Saw Them ;

Sheriff George Barham sat. in his
office at Bloomfield, Montana, his feet
on his desk, and went to sleep. He
dreamed he saw someone enter the
Methodist Church at Advance, a
nearby town, with a basket of eggs.
Then the sheriff woke up.

The dream made such an impres-
sion on him that he called the mar-
shal at Advance and the Rev. J. L.
Glassy, pastor of the church. He ask-
ed them to go to the church and see
if everything was all right. In the
attic they found six cases of eggs,
which had been stolen from a poultry
house.

Founding Of Cunard Line

First Regular Steamship Service To
Cross the Atlantic

Americans the world over are par-
ticularly interested in the birthday
of the Cunard Line, founder of the
first regular steamship service across
the Atlantic, first. because the date
of July 4th happened to coincide
with their own Independence Day,
and secondly because the birth and
growth of the steamship has played
a major part in the’ development of
America.

When the Cunard flag-ship “Aqui-
tania” sailed into Halifax on a short
cruise from New York, her arrival
marked the ninety-third anniversary
of the» maiden voyage of the pion-
eer Cunarder “Britannia,” from Liv-
erpool to America. From then on the
history of the Line has been to a
large extent the history of trans-
Atlantic shipping. The “Britannia”
left Liverpool on July ‘4th, 1840,
bound for Halifax and Boston .and
covering the route in 14 days and 8
hours carrying 63 passengers.

‘Few Canadians realize that Sir
Samuel Cunard was born in Halifax
and even before founding the. Line
which bears: his name, had by the

was head of a fleet of sailing ships
plying between Nova Scotia and the
West Indies. Knighted in 1859 for
outstanding service during the Crim-
ean War, he died in London in 1864,
in his 78th year, one of the world’s
great pioneers. ‘

Cunard came of a United, Empire
leading men in Nova Scotia for many
years. The name of his family is still
carried on in various. parts of the
Maritimes.

From the early days of the first
fleet of four little steamers, the
“Britannia,” “Acadia,” ‘Columbia,”
“Caledonia,” the story of the Line as
told in “Spanning the Atlantic” by F.
Lawrence Babcock, is a fascinating
one. Many celebrated passengers have
crossed in famous Cunarders, includ-
ing no-less a personage than Mark
Twain, whose quaint account of his
crossing in those early days is given
in a letter he wrote to the ‘Acadian
Recorder” of Halifax, and in his “In-
nocents Abroad.”

It.is interesting to know that the
Cunard Line was the first to obtain a
monopoly in carrying British mails to
America; to adopt new inventions in
hull and engine constructions; to pro-
vide comfortable quarters for steer-
age passengers; to communicate by
wireless from boat to land and to
initiate in recent years the popular
“tourist” class.

The story of the race for time
across the Atlantic is one which has
epic quality. Many competitors arose
and fell and in the late years of the
nineteenth century the race was fast
and furious. As early as 1856 the
“Persia” made the crossing in nine
days while ten years later the “Sco-
tia” crossed in 8 days. In 1877 the
“Umbria” and the “Etruria” crossed
in six days, while in 1894 the speedy
“Lucania” reduced the crossing to one
of five days. In this century the cele-
brated ‘Mauretania’ has_ raced
across the Atlantic consistently in
less than 444 days and even today is
the fastest cruise liner afloat. For 22
years she held the mythical “Blue
Riband” of the Atlantic, the longest
period any ship has ever worn this
‘honour.

Cunarders have figured in several
crises of Empire. Sit Samuel was
‘liknighted for the services. his
ships gave Britain during the Crim-
ean War, while the fleet also served
during subsequent troubles and the
Boer War; a war service which cul-
minated in the magnificent record
during the World War. The present
Atlantic fleet of the Cunard and As-
sociated Lines, numbers twenty-two,
from. the giant ‘Berengaria” and
“Aquitania” to the popular “A”
steamers on the Canadian route.

Dirigible Coming Again

Graf Zeppelin Making. Trips To New
York In October

The dirigible Graf Zeppelin will
make another flight to New York via
South America in October if present
plans materialize, Dr. Hugo Eckener
said. ;

“Negotiations for the flight have
not been completed yet,” Dr. Ecken-
er said, “It will be a passenger and
mail flight, like our last trip to New
York. We will follow our regular
course from Friedrichshafen to Per-
nambuco and then go northward to
New York.”

The Graf Zeppelin thus far has
made 320 flights with a total of 6,000
flying hours. It has transported 8,200
passengers, 32,000 pounds of mail and
47,000 pounds of freight and covered
about 400,000 miles. Included in these
flights are about ten round trips to
North and South America, of which
three were made this year.

Devotional Redding: Psalm 4:1-8.

Explanations and Comments

Naomi and Her Family In Moab,
Chapter 1:1-5.—During a severe fam-
ine in the time of the Judges, Naomi
and her husbartd and two sons left
Bethlehem and settled in Moab. There
Elimelech, the husband, -died. The
sons married daughters of Moab, Or-
pah and Ruth. After a few years’ so-
journ in Moab, both sons died; Naomi
was the sole survivor of her family;
her daughters-in-law were to her for-
eigners. She determined to return
alone to-Bethlehem, for she heard
that the famine there was over.

At the Parting Of the Ways, Chap-
ter 1:7-14.—In eastern lands fare-
wells seldom take place in the home,
and Ruth and Orpah carried out the
usual custom when they accompanied
Naomi a short distance on her way.
When Naomi thought they had gone
far enough to show her fitting respect
she stopped to dismiss them. She
bade each return to her own mother’s
house, and: find a husband in her own
land. “Jehovah deal kindly with you,
as ye have dealt with the dead, and
with me”’—thus she voiced her real-
ization of their devotion to her and
her sons. She kissed them farewell
and then wept. As the young women
both insistéd they would return with
her, she reminded them that they
could not hope to secure husbands in
her land. Orpah yielded, and turned
back. :

“In our desire to honor the courage
and charm of Ruth’s devotion, we
moderns are apt to do.some injustice

‘to Orpah. Poor Orpah is often con-

trasted with Ruth, as though she
were a Goneril or Regan beside a
Cordelia. It is not so. Orpah was not
a cold-hearted creature, with more
prudence than affection in her nature.
In returning ‘to her natve land and
refusing to be 4 burden to the older
woman, she acted according to Orien-
tal standards, wisely, and even—as
both she and Naomi: felt—in a true
spirit of kindness. She had nothing to
reproach herself with, and her -moth-
er-in-law had no cause to feel disap-

pointed. Both Orpah and Ruth were |

kind folk as well as kinsfolk to
Naom{.’—James Moffatt.
Ruth’s Noble Decision, Chapter 1:

15-18.—Naomi tried to persuade Ruth |

to return also, but Ruth was stead-
fast in her determination to remain
with Naomi. Her words to Naomi
have become famous: “Entreat me
not to leave thee, and to return from
following after thee; for whither thou
goest, I will go; and where thou lodg-
est, I will lodge; thy people shall be
my, people, and thy God my God.”

“Large is the life that flows for
others’ sakes;

Expends its best, its noblest effort
makes;

Devotion rounds the man and makes
him whole;

Love is the measure of the human
soul.’—James Buckham.

Plenty Of Playgrounds

Oanada has Eighteen National Parks
Covering 11,500,000 Acres

The recent official opening of Rid- |

ing Mountain National Park, in Mani-
toba near Neepawa, adds 1,148 square

miles to the area reserved in the Do- |
minion as a natural playground for}

all the people. There are now eigh-
teen of these national parks through-
out Canada, with a total area of 18,-
000 square miles or more than 11,-
500,000 acres. They are sanctuaries
for wild life, refuges from the hustle

and bustle of affairs, and as the popu- |
lation grows they will be appreciated |

more and more by those periodically
overwhelmed by a desire to
away from it all.”

Riding Mountain Park is 178 miles

from Winnipeg and may be reached |
by good roafs from the international
boundary. It is a natural home for

elk, moose, deer, black bear and bea-
ver. It has a herd of 2,000 to 3,000
wild elk, probably the largest in Can-
ada, There are golf, tennis, swimming
and boating, and for those who want
the forest primeval trails likely to
bring one into an encounter with the
roaming elk. These ought to be enough
qualifications for any one park.

Eighteen national parks offer eigh- |

teen magnificent vacations in infinite
variety for the tired worker who

craves the open spaces. In a few of |

them, such as Banff and Jasper, he
may dress for dinner if his inclina-
tions move him that way, but for the
most part they are handed over to
the people pretty much as Nature left
them.—Ottawa Journal.

Natural Gas

Drilling Commences In Dirt Hills
Area Of Province

After $40,000 had been spent in
testing the structure, Highwood Sar-
cee Oils Limited, of Calgary, has
pushed forward immediate plans for
drilling for natural gas in the Dirt
Hills. The company has secured con-
trolling interest in 14,000 acres ap-
proximately 30 miles south of Moose
Jaw and 50 miles southwest of Re-
gina.

A contract for drilling the first
well has been given to the Sheldon
Burden of Canada Limited, work has
already commenced and actual dril-
ling operations started.

The company is equipped and pre-
pared to go to 4,000 feet if necessary
but itis anticipated gas bearing strata
will be reached long before that
depth. The area has been tested geo-
logically and geophysically and last
year a thorough survey by the latest
seismographic method was under-
taken.

The results confirmed previous in-
vestigation and if expectations are
fulfilled a supply of natural gas eas-

Moose Jaw should be developed by
the fall months, the company says,
in its official statement.

A great deal of geological work
has been done in this area, which
has been favorably reported on by
leading geologists, and the present
development work is being undertak-
en as a result of a favorable report
on the seismograph survey made last
fall by Geophysical Service Corpora-
tion of Dallas, Texas, which is the
same company that did the work for

cently completed its well.

President of the Highwood Sarcee
Oils is A. W. Dingman, the father of

trict of Calgary and a pioneer in

company is strong financially and
well able to carry out its undertak-
ings.

Japan Needs Markets

Chinese Trade Is Necessary To Sup-
port Growing Millions

Japan last year added more than
,@ million to her population in the
‘home islands. She now has as many
people as Germany ‘on a territory only
five-sixths as large; and Germany is
among the most crowded of nations.
There is only one other big power
that ‘registers such annual gains, and
that is Russia. There the annual -in-
crement is about 2,500,000 for a pop-
ulation two and a half times as large
as Japan’s. The latter has a death
rate twice as high. Birth control in
Nippon is as yet unknown. .

It does not follow that population
pressure in Japan justifies recent
methods in territorial expansion.
Emigration is comparatively a-tric-
kle and cannot solve her problem.
Her growing millions can be support-
ed only by progressive industrializa-
tion and growing foreign markets. In
\this sense Japan, needs the good-will
and trade. of the Chinese people more
than she needs Chinese territory.

PROGRAM WINS

London, Eng.—Approval for Pregi-

was voiced in the House of Commons
by spokesmen of the three principal
political camps.

The .debate, which turned upon
the world economic conference up-
on the eve of indefinite adjourn-

ment of that gathering, drew from|
Neville Chamberlain, Chancellor of |

the Exchequer, the declaration that
the pound sterling is an independ-
ent currency, linked neither to gold
nor the U.S. dollar.

Independent speakers of the Lab-
orite, Liberal and Conservative
groups declared the United States
is not to blame for lack of accom-
plishments by the economic par-
ley.

“There was no basis on wihch
President Roosevelt could stabilize
the dollar with reference to the
pound,”’ charged the veteran Lib-
eral chieftain, David Lloyd George,
making one of his now rare appear-
ances in the parliamentary discus-
sidns. ‘

Asserting the economic confer-
ence is dead, Mr. Lloyd George as-

‘ gerted that “the prime minister is
engaged in finding the best method
of embalming it, so as to keep the
appearance of life after the spirit
has departed.” ‘

stablizie the U.S. dollar.

Many speakers referred to “the
‘great experiment” now in progress in
the United States. Mr. Lloyd George
said: .

“There are three experiments now
proceeding, on the success or failure

of which the whole outlook of the_

world depends—the Russian, the Ital-
jan.and. the American. The American
is the most important.

“I hate to use the word revolution
_in referring to it (the American),
but it is a complete transformation.”

The debate was forced on the gov-
ernment in order to clear up its poli-

cies with regard to such problems-as |

currency and public works. ~

Road To Recovery

Industrial Situation. Is
Further Improvement

Ottawa, Ont.—Canada’s industrial

aituation showed further marked im- |

provement at the beginning of July.
Increases in personnel reported to
the Dominion Bureau of Statistics by

8,125 firms were greater than those’

indicated by the firms making returns

for any previous July in any year'|

aince 1920.

_Establishments reporting data had
778,148 persons on their staff on July
1, as compared with 742,750 on June

1. This increase caused the Bureau's |

index to rise by 3.8 points to 84.5
fas compared with the average season-
al advance of about two points.

London’ Representative. Has Not
Standing Of Cabinet Minister
Ottawa, Ont.—Queries reaching

Ottawa from British newspapers indi-

cate that the question of the Cana-

dian High Commissioner being a

member’ of the Dom‘nion Government

is again under discussion in London.

Hon. G. Howard Ferguson, High Com-

missioner in London, is a member of

the Canadian Privy Council as. was
his predecessor, Hon. Peter Larkin.

As such he may attend a cabinet

meeting but evidently in some quar-

ters the proposal being made that

Canada’s representative to the British

Government should be a full fledged

cabinet minister.

During the war Sir George Perley
before he became high commissioner,
represented Canada in London while
a member of the Borden Government.

The argument has been advanced

that a high commissioner could more.

effectively serve Canada if he had
the authority of a member of the Do-
minion Government. Under the pres-
ent arrangement, the high commis-
sioner is responsible to the minister
of external affairs, whereas if he were
a cabinet minister he would be re-
sponsible to cabinet as are the hold-
ers of the other portfolios.

One ‘suggestion made some time
ago was that a member of the cabin-
et serve in London for two years and
then be succeeded by another’ mem-

ber, thereby always having:a repre-

sentative in close touch with Domin-
ion affairs.

End Economic War |

Expect Trade Barriers Between Eng-
* . land and Ireland Will Be
Removed

Dublin, Irish Free State.—The be-!

lief is growing that the economic war
between the United Kingdom and the
Irish Free State, which resulted from
withholding by the Free State Gov-
ernment of land annuities amounting
to $15,000,000 a year, will be speedily
ended.

“We are not anxious to maintain
tariff barriers,’ Sean: Lemass, Minis-

‘ter of Industry and Commerce, de-

clared in the senate. ‘‘We will remove

the emergency duties now if Great |

Britain undertakes to remove her
pénal duties within a reasonably short
time.” 7

Mr. Lemass added that if certain
members of the United Kingdom gov-
ernment would “show a little sanity”
there would be a speedy end to the
dispute. :

The minister's speech is generally
regarded as a distinct advance and
gesture to the United Kingdom.

Western Wheat Crop

Heat and Drought Spoils Excellent
Prospects In June

Ottawa, Ont.—Continued uncertain- |

ty as to the prospects for crops on

the prairie is noted in the ninth of a!

series of 15 weekly telegraphic re-

ports on conditions in Manitoba, Sas-|

katchewan and Alberta, published by
the Dominion Bureau of Statistics.

Excellent wheat prospects in May |

were generally blighted in June by

drought, and July brought a further |

decline, the report states.

The unsatisfactory conditions are
regional, however, the report ex-
plains, and the effect on the whole
wheat crop will depend upon the
acreage affected.

Seizes Islands

Tokyo, Japan.—An investigation to

degrees north and 113 east.

Flight Postponed

Moliison’s Plans For Further Flight
Off For the Present .

‘ Viewed As Experiment —

Believe Roosevelt Plan Would Not Be

Success In Canada
* Toronto, Ont.—Toronto business
leaders said they did not believe an
industrial recovery,plan along lines of
that initiated in the United States
by President Roosevelt would succeed
in Canada. The United States plan
of raising pay and shortening |
working hours, they said, could not |
be regarded otherwise than as an|
experiment.

Cc. H: Carlisle, president of . the
Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company,
paid “I am not in favor of President |
Roosevelt’s plan as a plan that would |
work out permanently. If it works at |
all, it is a sort of anaesthetic for a|
bad case. ‘ |

C. L. Burton, president of the Rob-
ert Simpson Company, described the |
scheme as “dynamite.” In his opinion, |.
Mr. Burton said, “the less interfer- |
ence by the government with business '

the better for the wage-earner.

J. Allen Ross, president of the Wil-
liam Wrigley Company, differed. He!
said he thought the Roosevelt plan |
had a good chance of success, but ad-
mitted “the industrial set-up of this
country is different.”

Improving Bay Railway

New York.—Captain James Molli-
son said the projected flight of him-

definitely off for the time being. -

* «Tm not through flying,” the Scots-

recovering from injuries suffered
when his 'plane crashed at Bridge-
port, Conn., after a trans-Atlantic
hop. :

Although he* made it plain that
their flying plans for the immediate
future have not been made, Mollison
intimated he had in mind obtaining
on h’s return to England, a ’plane
| similar to the “Seafarer,” the 'plane
| ih which the couple crashed.

Meanwhile -it became known that
the “Seafarer” is being prepared for
shipment to England on the liner
“Amereican Farmer.” _

Unemployed Congress

National Meeting Of Workless To Be
Held In Ottawa

Ottawa, Ont.—The city council. has
| been‘asked to provide accommodation
for some hundreds of delegates who
plan to hold a national congress of
the unemployed in Ottawa, Sept. 6
and 7. The secretary of the national
committee of unemployed councils, H.
Sula, Toronto, also asked that the
city provide food for the delegates.

Last August a similar gathering of
the unemployed was held here, with
hundreds of unemployed men and
women coming to the. capital by
| hitch-hiking, riding freight rtains,
and on foot. Some rode freight-trains
all the way from the Pacific coast.
' The forthcoming congress was call-
.ed by a committee appointed at the
gathering last August.

PART PLAYED

BY EMPIRE IN
WORLD PARLEY

London, Eng.—‘The British Com-
monwealth of Nations was one of the
greatest powers participating in the
World Economic Conference,’ the
Prince of Wales declared in address-
ing delegates to the sixth biennial
conference of the British Empire
Service League ‘at a banquet here.

“Because of our position we can
never have’ any narrow, national
character,” he continued. ‘For one
of the greatest powers in the world,
to have’ no narrow, individualistic
national character but yet be held’ by
a great bond is a very great thing
at present.”

The Prince said that after ten
years the British Empire Service
League had justified its existence
among ex-servicemen “and among
governments in all parts of the
commonwealth fr - nations. All
parts of the Empire had suffered

| severely during the last ten years.

War veterans of the Empire had
borne their burdens with great forti-
tude, he said; because they knew
what service and sacrifice were and
knew it was up to them to help
others who had not been through the
same gruelling.

The heir to the throne read a tele-
gram from the King wishing’ contin-
ued prosperity to the league.

“Danger clouds are showing in
declared
Rt. Hon. Winston Churchill respond-
ing to a toast to the guests. . “The
glorious victory has not been followed
by any slackening in the demands
for exertion or any increase in the
ease o fthe lives of our people, but we
ease of the lives of our people, but we

| can feel a certain satisfaction at the

position we hold today.”

Crowned Wheat King
Freland Wilford Of Stavely, Success-
ful Mixer Farmer

Calgary, Alberta.—Freland Wil-
ford, crowned wheat king at Regina
World's Grain Show, also is a promi-
nent stockman of the Stavely, Alber-

ta district. Freland carries a fine herd
of Tamworth hogs, a flock of Hamp-

shire sheep, a herd of Hereford cat- -

tle and a number of purebred horses
on his four sections of land.

In every sense of the word a suc-
cessful mixed farmer, Wilford will re-
ceive a rousing welcome when he re-
turns to Stavely with’ the wheat
crown. Stavely residents, while pre-
paring for a great reception, told how
Wilford and his wife had quiefly pre-
pared since the fall of 1932 for the
Regina show.

In the daytime and under artifi-
cial light at night the couple exam‘n-
ed bushel after bushel of Reward
wheat until he found the sample that
carried him to victory at the world’s
greatest grain exhibition. ;

Ruling In Marriage Case
2 ees :
Alberta Court Determines Provincial
Laws Governing Youthful
_ Contracts —
Calgary, Alberta.—Alberta court of

appeal has ruled any girl over 12 and
any. boy over 14 years of age may

| marry without their parents’ consent

as far as provincial laws are con-
cerned, declaring such cases aré ex-
clusively under Dominion government

‘control.

This judgment was handed down
in Edmonton, Tuesday, during appeal
court sittings and followed hearing
of a case in which a mother attempt-
ing to have the marriage of her
daughter annulled on the grounds
both the daughter and youthful hus-
band failed to obtain their parents’
consent. The girl was 19 years of
age and the boy 20.

The court held the marriage was
valid in handing down judgment. A
minority dissenting judgment was
handed down by Mr. Justice Clarke,

A Ptece of Pie.

Some of these modern diet delusion-
Ists are claiming that the habit, of eat-
ing pie is a pernicious one. They
would have it barred from the daily
cuisine as a. menace to health. A dras-
tic movement such as this would be
little short of a national calamity.

There is probably no other article of
diet which appears in such infinite
variety and enjoys such a widespread
popularity as pie. It has an old-fash-
igned homey appeal to the hearts (cr
rather stomachs) of millions of devot-
ed devourers who would rise in open
rebellion at any attack on its charac-
ter or reputation.

It is an old reliable standby that
has stood the test of time, the attacks
of fanatics, and the forebodings of
dyspeptics. Its interior contents: are
many and varied, but all are general-
ly good, altho some kinds have more

_llurements than others.

Vegetables, cereals, fruits, berries,
birds, fish, and wild and tame anim-
als have all contributed to the many
and mysterious compounds used in ifs
interior upholstery. Millions of in-
ventors are continually searching and
experimenting for new ingredients
and possibilities. -

It can be obtained in the ‘three

‘standard and approved models of

open-faced, closed and cross-barred—
designs which have been approved by
age and usage and are fittingly appro-
priate to certaiu species.

Pie can be eaten by people of all
ages, of ull races, of all colors. It is
equally enjoyable hot,
with or without music, waiters, lights,
napery, table hardware or other im-
pedimenta.
~ It is good when eaten alone, or in
company with cheese, sauce, sugar,

milk, and any kind of cream (whip-| .

ped, calm or frozen).

It is without caste, social aspira-
tions or ;highbrow snobbery.
ebually paramount in the laborer’s
dinner pail, the fly-spécked beanery,
the railway lunch counter, the choose-
and-carry cafeteria, or the sacred
puriieus of the most shamelessly-ex-
pensive hyphenated hostelry. It can
be eaten for all meals — breakfast,

’ Juncheon, dinner or midnight snack.

It is good at all hours, in all seas-
ons, in all weathers, provided always
that it be well and truly made ! this is
the main consideration. Beware of the
‘base imitation, made from embalmed
commercial inystery artfully conceal-
ed beween layers of pallid linoleum
that flaunts its brazen and spurious
effrontery on an innocent clientele.

The Farm Woman, God- Remembered.

‘Once, ‘twas said, the farmer's wife
Led so hard and drear a life,
Working early, working late ;
Broken health her certain fate.
Notning to relieve her lot—

She, the woman God forgot.

But some, in that bygone day,

Chose themselves a better way ;
Work and play and trust in God
Brought results both deep and broad.
God remembered—Better health,
Better homes—a common wealth,

Now, in this our latest. day,
Wealth of wings bas flown away ;
Poverty lurks at the door ; |
Must love out the window soar 2
Trust in God! He'll not forget !
Thru life’s maze he'll lead us yet.
God forgotten ! Can it be

“When he gives so much to mé ?
God remembered, rather say,
Crowned with blessings every day.
Simple pleasures, always besi,
Come to us. Forget the rest,

Greeted in my waking hours

By song birdsand fragrant flowers,
Charmed by pictures changed each day
From my windows spread away.

Bird song. flowers, skies, field, trees,
God remembers me with these.

Morning hours that swiftly fly
Some new zest each day supply:
Chickens calling for their food,
Garden pining to be hoed,

This is how God thinks of me,
Thus I'd praise him joyfully.
Horns are blowing; noon is here;
Men come in for rest and cheer.
“Phat fried cdicken is just great.”
Just on piece left on the plate,
“Where's a litle tin pail, Fraw 2
Strawberries are plenty now,”

Dishes washed, things rabbed a bit,
Everything looks nice and fit.

Some old friend on some new quest
Dropping in, we Loth are blest:

Patterns, buuks, and bits of news,

Crops and cCouference, Great men’s views, .
Eve has come with twilight star,
Music mellowed from afar;

Birds and beasts in quiet: bats
Of all times the eve 1s best.

The way thou hast remembered. me.

Little Helps For This Week

“He that is faithful in that which
is least is faithful also in much.” —
Luke 16:10.

The trivial round, the common task,
Would furnish all we ought to ask;
Room to deny ourselves; a roafi
To bring us daily nearer God.
—J. Keble.

Exactness in little duties is a won-
derful source of cheerfulness. We are
too fond of our own will. We want to
be doing what we fancy mighty
things; but the great point is to do
small things when called to them in a
right spirit.—R. Cecil.

It is not on great occasions only

Caring For Cut Flowers

Many Ways Of Keeping Blooms
. Fresh For Days

Everyone knows the old tip of put-.
ting an aspirin tablet in the water as
a pick-me-up. But do you realize that
the flowers must be given fresh water
after an hour or so, or the drug may
have the opposite effect? Anotber
remedy for flowers that have’ been
out of water for some time is to split
the stems, plunge them into a jar
containing two or three inches of hot
water, and keep them in the dark for
an hour or two. But this will be use-
less unless you cut off the dead pieces
of stem before putting the flowers in
the vases. Tulips that berid over with
the weight of their heads are usually
treated by wrapping in stiff paper.
But do you know that you can stiffen
the drooping stems with starch? Put
a small piece in the water and watch
the result. ‘

But if those expensive items were
the price tags for Camilla’s company,
he would have to meet them, some-
how. “Fine! I'll run along’ now and
‘phone for reservations,’ he attempt-
ed elaborate “sangroid.” “Shall I call
for you at eight?”

“You know where I live?”

“Who doesn’t know? Sure, I’ll be
seein’ you then.”

He saluted blithely, turned into the
parkway and strode away. But his
smile changed to an anxious frown
as soon ag he was out of Camilla’s
sight. Orchestra seats at the Majes-
tic and supper at the Maddox club,
if he preferred famous food and hot
music. He did, if he could afford a
preference. But he couldn’t."Such an
evening’s expenditure covered Peter’s
allowance and expenses for a week.

What to do, now? Hadn't he. leaped
into a devil of a mess, just such as
he had been forcing himself to avoid

for two months? Didn’t he, Peter
Anson, making his own way to a
career, know better than to get mixed
up with snooty girls like Camilla
Hoyt, whom it cost a fellow a for-
tune to entertain? He did. Then, why
hadn’t he. watched his step? Well —
what were you going to do’ about it
when you discovered that Camilla
Hoyt was the most adorable and de-
sirable creature in the world and you
were mad to be near-her, at the same
time you feared her?

He shoved his hand into his trou-

THE YEAR

I thrilled with joy in May,
When all the land was gay,
When all the mulfitude
Of birds in field and wood
Lifted their songs in glee
Fom hedgerow and from tree!
When every road up-hill
Lured me to journey still,
To climb each swelling crest,
Better to view east, west,
The sun-sweet world, so fair,
' No sorrow could be there!

But springtime could not stay,
Nor the child-heart of May.
Though in life’s summer-time
The deeper notes must chime,
They sound a braver tune, .
Ringing through golden June! |

And mellow in the fall,

The songs of living call,
Richer. for memory

Of joys that used to be.

Each season as it goes

To some sweet measure flows;
-Winter, though grim and chill,
May move to music still!

The Chicken of Today.

The old red hen ‘‘.ain’t what she

used to be,” the head of the poultry
department of the Massachusetts
States College said recently. The
chicken of today is forced into
early maturity and is kept operat-
ing at a speed which would have
killed her 1900 ancestor: In. the
old days a chicken was born and
afew days later she was out in
the yard tugging at worms. Now
many of the incubator . hatched
chicks'never get, out of a building
until their laying days are over.
Back a few years ago the ordinary
hen started laying at 8 to 14
months, but now the poultryman
has hastened .things along so that
expects them to be laying at 5 to
7 months.

The Blg Storm

Thursday evening last this
district was visited by a most
severe electrical and rain-
storm. The stofm followed 4
days of excessive heat, the
temperature rising at times to
over 90 in the shade.

The storm had. come dowr
from the west, and is thought
to have started in the vicinity
of Gainford, where it did con-
siderable damage to automo
biles, windows and roofs of
buildings ; one report saying
‘the hailstones were the size
of baseballs, some going right
thru the tops of automobiles
and badly denting fenders ”

One favorable thing in con-
nection with the storm was
the narrow width to which
the hail damage was confined;
farmers to the south of town
getting no hail and very little
rain, The crop damage seems
to have been confined to the
grain fields. along the Base-
line. |, ‘

There is said to have been
very little bail, insurance con-
tracted for by the oval farm-
ers.

Wheat Pool Payments.

Premier Brownlee is quoted
as expressing the opinion that
another distribution of profits
may be made to Alberta wheat
pool members, on past trans-
actions. “ If present price lev-

a possibility that a further
distribution may be made to
pool members on the 1930
-crep, which has been. handled

The records show that 60c

that crop; and other payments
ranged down to ddc¢ and 50c.
